Yes I did.
In that case, go ahead and export the two registry keys below, and upload them here. I'll be happy to take a look at them to see what may be wrong. :)
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{679f85cb-0220-4080-b29b-5540cc05aab6}\ShellFolder
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Classes\CLSID\{679f85cb-0220-4080-b29b-5540cc05aab6}\ShellFolder
Ok. Found the problem. You need to repeat steps 1 to 8, then restart the computer afterwards. It was still set to show. :)
I did not do that because I saw this:
10. If you have a 64-bit Windows 10, then repeat steps 4 to 7 above for the registry location below.
Note
This step is to add or remove Quick access from the "Open" and "Save as" type dialogs in 64-bit Windows 10.
This step is not for 32-bit Windows 10.
Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Classes\CLSID\{679f85cb-0220-4080-b29b-5540cc05aab6}\ShellFolder
That is for to do step 10 if you have a 64-bit Windows 10. If you have a 32-bit Windows 10 installed, then you wouldn't do step 10.
However, you would need to do step 8 on both 32-bit or 64-bit to remove Quick access.
Thanks Shawn When I was looking at your request for the reg files I saw that the one in root wasn't done and I thought maybe I misread the Tut..LOL But it is now out of the navigational pane but the folders are still there but I think that maybe they should be..
Thank you for your help. I appreciate it!
You're most welcome. :)
The other folders are for "This PC", and are not related to "Quick access". For that, you can use the tutorial below to remove them.

Hi,
I registered here just to respond to this thread and ask a question:
What you describe (setting the attribute to 0xA0600000) does indeed hide Quick Access. It also breaks something important...
Once Quick Access is hidden I can no longer drag and drop files into folders in the Navigation (left) pane. If I try to do so, a little red circle with a line through it appears and the file will not drag/drop.
Do you know of any workaround to prevent this loss of functionality?
Thanks.
